Cg Compose 2 Manual
Getting Started
Your Personal Composition System will be installed following the procedures in Chapter 6, Setting Up Your System, in the Lisa Office System Manual. Each of the Personal Composition System software tools has a manual that teaches how to use the tool.
This manual will teach you to use of Cg Compose 2 software. It also includes a separate chapter on each one of the output devices and a quick reference section describing the set up of output devices. If you are already familiar with the Personal Composition System you may want to turn to Chapter 3:Cg Compose 2 Reference, to learn about the software enhancements. If you are new to the Personal Composition System, you should follow the steps listed below.
1 Go through Chapters 1 and 2 in the Lisa Office System Manual for an
introduction to the Lisa. This includes booting the system with Lisa Guide and completing the interactive training.
2 The Lisa Office System Manual also contains other information about how to use your System. For example, it has a trouble shooting section to help you solve problems when the System is not working as it should. As you become more familiar with the System and need more information, check the Table of Contents or the Index for assistance. This may include installing software, setting Preferences, using the calculator, tips on caring for the Lisa, and other desktop management activities.
3 When you are familiar with Personal Composition System basic operating procedures, turn to each of the tool manuals to learn the essentials of using that tool. To learn Compose you will have to know at least the LisaWrite and LisaDraw tools.
~ Go to Chapter 1 of each tool manual to learn about a tool.
~ Go to Chapter 2 for self-paced instructions on using a tool.
~ Go to Chapter 3 for specific instructions for performing a task with a tool.
4 When you feel confident that you can create documents in LisaWrite and LisaDraw you will be ready to learn Cg Compose 2. Go to Chapter 1 of this manual to begin learning about the Compose tool.
Introducing Compose

Have you gone through LisaGuide?
What You'll Need To Get Started
Seeing What's
On A Disk
This Chapter gives you actual hands-on experience with Compose. By going step-by-step through an easy example, you will become familiar with the basic Compose operations. Use this example to experiment with each menu item. Try out several ways to change the text with each new function you learn. Use this time to gain experience and understanding of how Compose works.
It's OK if your screen is a little different than the pictures in the manual, especially if you are developing confidence in using the tool. After completing this chapter you will be able to create, edit, store, and print Compose documents.
The material in this manual assumes that you have gone through LisaGuide, which teaches you the fundamentals of using the Lisa. The LisaGuide diskette comes in the Lisa 717 package. Instructions for using LisaGuide appear in Chapter 1 of the Lisa Office System manual. Important background information about the desktop is found in Chapter 2 of that manual. Make sure you understand the concepts in that section before going on with this manual.

45
minutes.Note: If Your System is not set up, or if you need to install tbe Cg Compose 2 tool, tbe Cg Compose 2 Examples Folder, or tbe Cg Compose 2 Software, see Cbapter 4 System Set Up, in tbis manual.
To get the document you'll work with, you first need to have a duplicate of the Examples Folder copied on your Disk. An explanation of how to duplicate the folder is in Chapter 4. Open the Disk icon as described in the steps below. The icon you will open may be called the ProFile, Internal Hard Disk, Disk, or you may have already named it something else. When you open the Disk you access information stored on the hard disk.
The way you open the Disk will illustrate the most general principle of your Personal Composition System:
• First you select something .
To Open the Disk Icon 1 Select (highlight) the Disk icon by placing the tip of the pointer on it and clicking the mouse button. (Icon not highlighted? Try again.)
2 To open the Disk icon, choose Open "Disk" from the File/Print menu.
~ Press and hold down the mouse button with the tip of the pointer on File/Print in the menu bar.
~ Move the pointer down and release when Open "Disk" is highlighted. (Is the Open menu item dim? You probably clicked somewhere else on the gray part of the screen and deselected the Disk icon. Go back to step 1 and make sure the Disk icon is selected.)

Compose Document The Annual Report document is now open on your desktop.
Across the menu bar at the top of the screen are the Compose menu names. Each menu contains a list of actions you can use in a Compose document.
The Compose tool combines the writing and text editing features of Lisa Write with the drawing capabilities of LisaDraw. Text, spreadsheets, lists, drawings, and other graphics can be cut or copied from other Lisa tools and stored ongaUeys that are created at the bottom of the Compose window.
Practice with Compose
Once the page layout is displayed the way that you want it, you may choose to accept the page from the Edit menu. This prohibits any changes to that page unless you choose to edit it again from the Edit menu.
When possible you should make stationery pads out of your most commonly used page layouts and store them on micro diskettes. This will greatly reduce your production time and minimize the time you will have to spend setting up your documents.
Without pressing the mouse button, move the pointer around the screen and notice that it is shaped like an arrow. In Compose this is how it appears when you move compartments and galleys and select menu items.
You will see other kinds of pointers as you go through Getting Started. To enter text into a compartment you will create a the text insertion point by placing the change pointer into the compartment, holding down the~key, and clicking the mouse button. The shape of the pointer changes to a drawing symbol when you draw a rule or choose Make A Compartment from the Page Layout menu.
Imagine you work for a fictional company called Switch-On Communications, Inc. You will put the finishing touches on last year's Annual Report for the big annual meeting.
Text for the Annual Report has been written, edited, and copied as a LisaWrite document. A galley has been created at the bottom of the Compose document on your screen, and the text has been pasted on it through the clipboard.
Two graphs and the company logo have been completed in LisaDraw and copied onto three other galleys at the bottom of the Compose document. You will assemble these components into the Annual Report.
In the next several pages you will learn to:
• Make compartments.
• Move a figure to a page.
• Format text in a galley.
• Merge text from the galley into a compartment.
• Enter text into a compartment.
• Change the typestyle of text.
• Kern text.
• Insert a rule into the report.
• Change the Composition Defaults.
• Use Verticaljusification.
• Make a Space Block.
• Insert Word Breaks.
• Make a Header and Footer
• Insert a page number.
• Accept a page.
• Design a new page.
• Align and Match
• Set Tabs
• Output the report on an ImageWriter
• Output the report on a Typesetter or EP 308.
• Change the selected printer
• Put Your Document Away.

Cost Control And Productivity
During the first half of 1984, our manufac-turing organization met a steadily accelerat-ing STEP production schedule while syste-matically phasing out our obsolete products. With the purchase of A -I Radio Supply and Eastern Data Bits, we now have direct control
over the price of the microchips that are used in the STEP System.
Cost Reduction Programs
The overall proouctivity of our employees has improved as a result of the hiring freeze and reduction of the work force. It has be-come apparent that our new company motto "Get Serious Or Get Out" has indeed been taken seriously. With this new program, each employee's salary will correspond directly to the meeting of department objectives.
Inter-Office Communication
The communication requirements to meet department objectives have been satisfied by the purchase of Personal Composition Sys-terns for each department.

Making A Compartment The Annual Report requires finishing touches. To layout your page you must make compartments. Compartments control the position of the text on the page. You make a compartment by drawing a rectangle, just like in LisaDraw.
1 Choose Make a Compartment from the Page Layout menu. Notice how the pointer changes to a drawing pointer when the menu item is chosen.
2 Use the pointer to draw the compartment beginning 1 Y2 inches from the top of the page, and 1 inch from the left side of the page. Draw the compartment to the 4 inch mark on the top margin ruler and down to the 9 Y2 inch mark on the side, page ruler.
~ Place the pointer where the upper-left corner of the compartment will be located (see the figure).
~ Press and hold down the mouse button as you move the pointer down to the 9 V2 inch mark and to the right to the 4 inch mark. A box will appear.
~ Release the mouse button when you reach the correct size.

The company has made great strides inDuplicating a Compartment
Aligning Compartments
The text for the report will be set in dual columns so the compartment that you just made must be duplicated and the new compartment must be placed correctly on the page. Follow the steps below to duplicate the compartment and position it on the right side of the page.
I With the compartment selected, choose Duplicate from the Edit menu. (Pull down the menu, point to the menu item, and release the mouse button.)
2 Place the duplicate compartment 4lh inches from the left margin. Align the top edges of both compartments. (Box not in the right spot? Place the pointer into the box and move it into position.)
If you have trouble aligning the top edges of the compartments, you may choose a menu item to help you. Notice what happens when you select a compartment. Handles appear on the edge of the drawing, showing that it's selected. You can change the shape of the compartment by selecting and moving the handles. You may choose more than one compartment at a time by holding down the IShiftl
key as you select another compartment.
I Press down and hold the IShiftl key and select both compartments.
~ Place the pointer on a compartment.
~ Click the mouse button as you continue holding down the IShiftl key.
~ Select the other compartment.
2 Choose Align Objects ... from the Arrangement menu.
3 Choose Align ... Tops from the dialog box that appears .
Locking In Place
Moving a Figure to the Page
You will find that it is easier to work with compartments if they are locked to the page. Then you will not accidentally move them around when you are trying to perform other functions.
1 With both compartments still selected choose Lock in Place from the Arrangement menu. You will notice that this places a check mark in front of the item on the menu. If you were to select the menu item again, the check mark would be removed and you could again move the compartments.

The galley is the mechanism for entering documents into Compose. A figure can be copied from LisaDraw, LisaProject, or Lisa Graph and pasted onto a galley. It
will remain on the galley until you merge it into the Compose document. You will take the graphic from the galley and move it into the Annual Report. It can be placed anywhere on the page. The most dramatic position will be to place it in the middle of the page so it slightly overlaps both columns of text.

2 Move the graph figure from the galley to the page.
~ Place the pointer in the upper left corner of the galley with the graph. Press and hold down the mouse button to select it.
~ Move the pointer to drag the galley onto the page. Release the mouse button when the figure is centered between the compartments. The upper left corner will be positioned automatically where the mouse button was released. You may move it around by selecting it.
Note: The figure should be correctly sized before it is brought into Compose. You can not change the size or content of a figure after it has been pasted on a Compose galley.
Text that is created in LisaWrite, LisaCalc, and LisaList can be copied and pasted into a Compose document by placing it first in a galley. While it is being stored in the galley you may change the typestyle, point size, and
compress
the text by addingcharacter compensation
orkerning.
By applying these format attributes to text when it is in the galley you can determine how it will appearbefore
it is placed into a compartment. You can always select blocks of text on the page and change them after you have merged it into Compartments.Linking Compartments

Making a Space Block
Final Editing
You can add extra line space between paragraphs by making a space block at the end of a paragraph.
1 To make a space block you must place an insertion point at the end of sentence on a paragraph return.
~ Place the pointer after the: colon at the end of the first paragraph.
~ Press and hold down the ~key.
~ Click the the mouse button.
2 Choose Make Space Block from the Format Text menu. A double line will appear in the text between the paragraphs.
3 Scroll through the document and put a space block between each paragraph and subheading. Tme space block can be made larger by holding down the ~ key, selecting the bottom line of the space block, and pulling it downward. If you accidently move the compartment while you are selecting an insertion point, you can always choose to Undo"Move Fig.lComp." from the Edit menu.
As you go through the text adding space blocks, you can put the finishing touches on this page before you make the next page. You should change each subheading and improve the hyphenation if line endings are unsatisfactory.
~ Choose Cg Times Bold and 14 point type for each of the subheadings: New Options, Software, Hardware
Inserting Word Breaks In some cases you may want to change the hyphenation that occurs
automatically. You can insert a word break manually to change the automatic hyphenation of a particular line. You can turn off the automatic hyphenation for the whole page in the Composition Defaults dialog box.
1 As you scroll through the Annual Report look at each line and choose a hyphenated word, or a sentence that has a large gap and could be improved if a hyphen were placed differently. Because there are so many factors that determine line endings, it will be difficult to say where the unstisfactory word breaks may be in your Annual Report. Place an insertion point at another place in the word where it might be better to make the hyphen.
~ Press down and hold the ~key.
~ Click the mouse button.
2 Choose Insert Word Break from the Format Text menu. The word will now hyphenate where you have chosen. There are certain limits to how much you can change the hyphenation. The control you have over these limits is in the word and letter space settings that you make in the Composition Defaults. If
you choose to allow more word and letter space, you have a wider range of control. If you do not want a word to hyphenate, you may place a word break before or after a word. If the entire word will fit on the line, the word will not be hyphenated.
3 To remove the word breaks you've inserted, choose Delete Word Break
from the Edit menu.

necessary change the depth of the compartments or use vertical justification to make them even.
Output On the ImageWriter Printer
For proofing purposes it is a good idea to first print your document on a Dot Matrix printer before you send it to the typesetter. Follow the steps below to output your document on the ImageWriter printer. If you don't have a Dot Matrix printer, skip ahead to a section covering an output device that you do have connected to your Personal Composition System.
1 To be certain that the information displayed on the screen is stored on your disk for future retrieval, pull down the File/Print menu and select Save and Continue.
2 To select the device on which you will output your report, you must have that device physically connected to your Personal Composition System and have the device indicated in the Format for Printer menu.
3 Choose Format for Printer from the File/Print menu. A dialog box will appear to allow format choices. The information in this dialog box must agree with choices that you've already made in the Page Size dialog box. You will learn more about these choices in Chapter 2, Using Compose.
4 The title at the top of the page should be Format for ImageWriter Printer-serial port B. If the title is something else, check New Printer .•. and from the dialog box that appears check ImageWriter.

Introduction
Before you Begin
This Chapter explains Cg Compose 2 concepts, describes the screen, menus, pointers and general working environment. It also guides you, step-by-step, through several real-life examples. To get the maximum value from the chapter, you should tryout the examples on your Personal Composition System as you go through it. Major Compose features are covered in the examples.
A complete description of each Compose operation can be found in Chapter
3:
Compose 2 Reference in this manual.
Before you begin this chapter, be sure you have completed the interactive LisaGuide, and Chapter 1: Learning Cg Compose 2 in this manual. Chapter 1 introduces you to Compose Operations.
To complete this tutorial, you will need:
• The Cg Compose 2 Stationery paper that is on the Disk.
• The sample documents in the Examples Folder.
You should have duplicated the Cg Compose 2 Examples Folder onto the Disk. Instructions for this procedure are found in Chapter 4: System Set Up. When you have finished learning Compose, you will probably want to throw the Examples Folder into the Wastebasket to make room on your Disk. If you need it again, you can duplicate the original folder that is on the micro diskette.
You should understand the following procedures before beginning this chapter:
• How to move the pointer around the screen using the mouse.
• How to open menus and choose menu items.
• How to select text or objects on the screen.
• How to open and save documents.
• How to change the size of a window and move it around on the desktop.
• How to prepare text in LisaWrite.
• How to make LisaDraw figures.
• How to copy and paste documents.
• How to scroll the window to see different parts of the document.
-The arrow symbol appears before each activity in the chapter and indicates "Do something." For example,
The Cg Compose 2
Window
Cg Compose 2 Terms
This Chapter is divided into two parts. The first part briefly explains basic Compose concepts. The second part contains three examples of work you might perform on your Personal Composition System. Each example gives directions for accomplishing specific tasks. These tasks illustrate important points. You may use Chapter 2 as a reference guide when you want a reminder on how to do a specific task or when you want more information about a particular subject. You can look for specific topics and procedures in the index.
To use Cg Compose 2 you must understand the basic concepts and terminology associated with the Compose document. The basic operations that you perform in Compose, such as selecting, scrolling, entering text, changing text and formatting text, are similar to those you have learned in LisaWrite and LisaDraw. With Compose you will take these operations several steps farther. You will learn to have even more control over the final product-your document.
When you create and edit Cg Compose 2 documents, the desktop looks something like the figure below.
